The weather here is very unpredictable and hence it is always wise to pack layers.
Alaska is all about adventure and fun and there is absolutely nothing that you cannot do here. There is no stopping after your reach the mountains. Winter calls you for skiing and snowboarding, glacier trekking, flightseeing, and snowmobiling.

You can look for affordable accommodations in hotels, hostels, camping, and tents. If you want to experience the rich Alaskan flavor, you must get deep within the place and explore locations like Skagway, Sitka, Ketchikan, Chicken, and definitely Fairbanks.
